Grammar is important topic in all languages. Each language has its own rules such as Portuguese grammar rules; we will learn Intonation in Spanish now.
Definition: The use of pitch or tone in a sentence to convey meaning or emotion. Thus a sentence such as "my mother is at home" (mi madre está en casa) would sound different and have a different meaning as a question ("My mother is at home?" or ¿Mi madre está en casa?) than it would as a statement, even though the words are the same. It is an important grammar topic in all languages, because it helps us with the correct pronunciation of a foreign language. There are other languages which involves stress and rhythm. Example: The following sentences have different sounds and different meanings.
